Chapter 174 Who will take it seriously (two in one)
The golden autumn of October is the golden time to sell a house.
All the major real estate projects in Songcheng have been launched in full swing recently. However, compared with buying a house and getting a car and home appliances more than ten years ago, the real estate developers these days seem to be very petty and only give out soybean oil and eggs.
Of course, the difference is that you don’t have to buy it, you just have to look at the house and get it for free.
But in the eyes of the commentators, it's still just a joke, and it's just a little better than the evil real estate, at least you don't have to pay for it.
Therefore, major real estate projects welcome aunt groups today.
It’s called wool balls for short. I just don’t want to buy them, but I pick them up and eat them. Finally, I have to talk to the salesperson about the ink-marked eggs. Can you put two larger ones in them for me?
But don’t underestimate their spending power.
In 2013, major international financial institutions shorted gold, and the international gold price plummeted 20% in one day, falling to US$1,371.51 per ounce.
Just when these capital tycoons have begun to lick their chapped lips and want to bite off a piece of fat on the gold, what they don't understand is that the Chinese aunts have joined the battlefield.
In the next ten days, they frantically purchased 300 tons of gold, with a total value of 100 billion yuan. They single-handedly saved gold from the fire, and once raised the price of gold to over 2,000 US dollars per ounce.
So much so that the Wall Street Journal described it as a classic financial war battle.
And coined a word ‘dama’ for them.
Most aunts don't know that they have competed with the out-of-season capital tycoons and succeeded in shocking the world.
Most of them buy gold not only because it is cheap, but also because they think gold is one of the most valuable things in the world.
Of course the house is one of them.
So you say real estate developers are stupid? In fact, they are not. As long as one in a thousand of these people come to get eggs for free, they will make money with their own money.
But it’s obvious that Chen Ma is here just to tease her.
Also with her were Chen Zui's aunt and uncle and Luo Qiuyi.
My aunt is very open-minded and understands that she can't afford a house. She just comes to join in the fun and get eggs. It would be great if she could grab a bucket of soybean oil.
Therefore, when Chen Ma and I took advantage, there was no psychological burden, we didn't pretend too much, we just followed the process, and we didn't talk too much.
But the aunt is different. The aunt is very considerate. She really wants to see the "room" and grab some eggs by the way.
So when the salesperson took them to see the model house, the aunt and Luo Qiuyi made a real fuss. They asked the salesperson a lot of questions, but in the end they didn't buy anything and only asked for eggs.
Would you say it's annoying or not?
One family, two families. When they came to LaCrosse, the aunt said to the mother and daughter of the aunt's house: "Sister, Qiu Yi, can we not waste time like this? You ask what we are doing for a long time. Everyone who sells properties knows that we are here."
What's the point, don't make things difficult for each other, just get the eggs and leave."
Mother Chen also agreed: "The key point is that the people you asked spent a long time talking, and the last one didn't get it, so there is no need to take the things away."
The aunt was not happy when she heard this: "I really want to buy it."
Luo Qiuyi snorted coldly, holding up half a catty of eggs in her hand: "Second aunt, aunt, you don't think my mother and I are really here to accompany you to get these free eggs, do you?"
"Okay, let's talk about it."
The aunt replied angrily, blaming her own kindness. After learning about these properties that gave away things, she called the sisters' houses one by one, thinking that everyone had nothing to do on Sunday anyway, so she just took it for a walk.
After playing, why not take something home with you?
I never thought that my aunt, mother and daughter would actually come when other families didn't come.
When it comes, it comes.
You can just take the eggs, but you still have to show off.
Mother Chen knew what her aunt was thinking, so she took her hand and squeezed it. After all, sisters, some things should not be said directly.
The aunt felt guilty after hearing her daughter's words and glared at her.
Who would have known that she, a girl with no discernment, would actually reply to her mother: "Mom, why do you think so of me? Didn't you and my dad discuss changing houses a while ago?"
This is indeed the case.
That's because I have indeed saved some money over the years, and thinking that Luo Qiuyi has also gone to college, and my daughter's marriage should not be a loss, I want to buy a bigger house.
But if you don’t ask, you won’t know. If you ask, you will be shocked. House prices have been rising rapidly this year.
My aunt thinks that such a rise is abnormal and wants to wait for a dip before buying.
She didn't know if there would be a time when the price would drop, and she wouldn't be able to afford it if she waited.
But after all, this is what the aunt thinks now, so that when Luo Qiuyi heard what the couple said, the child took it seriously and began to think about it freely.
It’s hard to tell Luo Qiuyi that I really don’t want to buy it now, and I can’t lose face in front of my sisters.
The aunt had no choice but to say: "I've said it, but I have to take a look at it."
Luo Qiuyi was happy and said to Chen's mother and aunt: "You heard it, it's true. Do you think we and the salesperson have nothing to talk about?"
"Yeah, okay."
"Okay, uh-huh."
It’s almost the same as Ah Dui Dui in 2022. Mother Chen and her aunt were perfunctory.
"Hey, second aunt, little aunt, what do you mean? You really think my family can't afford it."
"No, your family can afford it."
"Well, I can afford it."
Luo Qiuyi stopped talking to them and turned to look at her mother: "Mom, I think the outfit just now was really good. I especially like the floor-to-ceiling window. I feel happy just thinking about living in it."
"Isn't that right? Can the new building be the same as the old building?"
My aunt also likes it, but she is old and knows that there are many things she likes in the world, but she always has to see if she can afford it.
If she really bought this, not to mention draining all her family's savings, she would probably have to borrow tens of thousands more, not counting the renovations. She didn't want to live in the same starvation situation as her second sister, Mother Chen.
The four of them walked forward in pairs, on their way to the LaCrosse property.
Auntie and Luo Qiuyi are thinking about their new house.
Chen's mother received a call from Chen Zui on the way and said to her aunt: "Chen Zui said he would come back later."
"Chen has a great future."
My aunt had this look on her face when she mentioned Chen Zui recently.
After all, her son Xiaozhi has seemed like a completely different person since he started dating Chen Wan.
I no longer have a knife in my trousers waistband.
Go to bed early and get up early every day.
The old friendly friends are gone.
As soon as we got home and chatted, Xiaozhi's words were filled with words such as "unity, protection, friendship, etc."
If she hadn't known that Chen Zui was one of the owners of the hot pot restaurant, my aunt would have mistakenly thought that her son had been brainwashed by a pyramid scheme.
She didn't know that everything could be a pyramid scheme.
Any organization, institution, company, or team that has some sense of cohesion will not be able to cohere without some brainwashing.
Of course, this is not the point. The point is that Xiaozhi is young after all, and Chen Zuo has to worry about everything he does.
In addition to knowing that the eldest son of the second aunt's family is one of the owners of the hot pot restaurant, I also know that Chen Zui is in love with his boss.
Not only that, there are also small shops, group buying, and recently a milk tea event. I heard that I made a lot of money in just 20 days.
Of course, my aunt didn't know the exact number. After all, Xiaozhi stuck his butt out every day and washed dishes in the hot pot restaurant. He couldn't imagine it, but he knew it was very popular. It was very popular.
My aunt hopes for the best for Chen, so she is very happy to hear these things.
If nothing else, the changes in Xiaozhi are visible to the naked eye.
I have become more sensible, not to mention, and my eyes are alive.
I know that making money is not easy, and I also understand how hard my parents are working outside.
What warms my aunt's heart the most is that after Xiaozhi received her first salary payment this month, he bought her a pendant worth more than 800 yuan. When she first put it on, she felt like it was falling.
Don't mention these.
Listening to my aunt's praise.
Mother Chen waved her hand: "What is your future?"
In fact, she was very pleased that Chen never told her these things. She only heard them from her aunt.
Pride, pride, and a little bit of pride that can't be concealed. Of course, the most important thing is that Chen Zu didn't lead Xiaozhi astray, which is good.
"Don't mention this, second sister, what do you think about Chen Zui's love affair? I heard he is several years older."
Chen's mother was happy: "I didn't ask Chen Zui, but if your information is correct, then it's boss Xiao Zhao."
"Well?"
Mother Chen whispered: "We met once before and we got along very well. The key is that she is very good-looking. She is much prettier than we were when we were young. The key is"
"What's the key?"
"The key point is that I thought about it carefully. Boss Zhao's butt shape can give birth to a son!"
Aunt: "..."
The aunt on the side said: "What, is Chen Zui in love?"
Mother Chen: "No clue, no clue, just say it."
My aunt didn't even answer me.
But Luo Qiuyi came again: "Second aunt, you have to go back and talk to your son. There are too many women around you, and they have been too popular recently. The first one is shot, do you understand?"
My aunt didn't like Luo Qiuyi's child before, but no matter how much she disliked her, she was also a child of the eldest sister's family, so she would worry about the child's face.
But you can just say a few words to us and just be patient.
But when it comes to Chen Zui and Xiaozhi, the aunt will definitely not be happy.
So she said: "This kind of limelight can't be achieved by just anyone. Chen can do it best, which shows that he has this ability."
Luo Qiuyi came up with a sense of pride that she didn't know where to come from: "Oh, you are capable. If you are capable, you can't go to college. If you don't open a small shop, you can just make milk tea. This is the inertia of small traders who don't have enough night markets.
Right?"
Mother Chen is quite tolerant. Maybe she has suffered a lot of grievances in the past two years. She doesn't take anything the children say to heart and just smiles when she hears them.
My aunt was not happy: "Why are you going to school? Isn't it just to find a good job in the future? What is the purpose of finding a good job? Isn't it just to make money? If you can be your own boss, you don't have to go to work to earn more?"
There was nothing wrong with her logic, and she got right to the root of the problem.
Luo Qiuyi was originally very eloquent, but she didn't respond quickly enough and didn't go around. She was speechless for a while.
The aunt added: "But this person, not everyone is qualified to be a boss. If Chen Zui has this ability, he has to let him do it himself. Qiuyi, are you jealous of Chen Zui?"
As she spoke, she stared into Luo Qiuyi's eyes and winked teasingly.
Luo Qiuyi said again: "Ha"
The aunt interrupted directly: "Don't worry about it every day. Haha, eldest sister, sometimes this child, it should be said, makes the whole family jealous when they look at it. Every day seven of them are dissatisfied and eight are dissatisfied. No one is big or small. How else?
He said, if you can't stand it, your life will be fixed."
Luo Qiuyi was really anxious by these words.
Is she jealous?
Is she jealous?
Who among the jealous people would admit that they were jealous? Luo Qiuyi said: "Aunt, what are you doing for Chen Zui? My second aunt didn't say anything, and she didn't say anything about your son."
As she spoke, she laughed again: "Xiao Zhi is still working as a waiter in a hot pot restaurant, right? This Chen is really good at it. My own brother lets him work as a waiter, not to mention a supervisor, but at least he must be a team leader or something."
, and said that my family is jealous of me, why don’t you tell me what he did to your son.”
Sometimes.
There is no reason for women to talk to each other.
Seeing that the two of them were getting angry, the aunt finally came out and said: "Okay, okay, you dare to talk back to your elders, right?"
She glared at Luo Qiuyi.
After glaring at her, he looked at his aunt: "You too, you are so grown up, why bother with a child."
This is one person with one stick. After all, the aunt is Luo Qiuyi's mother and the aunt's eldest sister. Neither of them can say anything.
But as she was walking in front of her, Mother Chen, who was very tolerant, said: "Sister, let me be fair, Qiu Yi, you are indeed a bit too tempered."
My aunt was very happy when she heard this, and said: "They say this person's name is backwards. Qiu Yi is really not happy in this autumn."
As she spoke, she pointed to the convenience store nearby: "Let's go, my aunt will buy you a popsicle to quell the fire."
Luo Qiuyi muttered: "Who would be willing to eat your popsicles?"
Her mother glanced at her again, so she had no choice but to walk down the steps by herself, but stood aside very shyly, feeling so angry that she probably couldn't get rid of the anger even by eating ice popsicles or ice sculptures.
These are just interludes.
After eating the popsicles, the whole family finally arrived at LaCrosse.
The property in front of me is not a high-end property, but it can be considered mid-range.
In particular, the sales office is really splendid and looks like a nightclub. Most of the people standing at the door are aunts. They have the same purpose and act in the same way. They are all here to collect wool.
Walking inside, there was a buzz of people, as if the property would be sold out in the next second.
Things will be given away because you need to see the house, but there are obviously not enough sales staff, so you have to wait in line.
The four of them came to the sand table and started looking at it. Since they had nothing to do, they started chatting.
Luo Qiuyi was sulking on the side and remained silent the whole time.
Not long after, Chen Zui also arrived at the door.
Seeing that this sales office wanted to give people a sense of luxury, but pretended to be a slutty temperament, he felt that it was quite similar to what he imagined at No. 64 Yanjiang Road.
Of course, the LaCrosse did not give him a bad first impression, because the commentators said that due to future planning, this place will be the center of Songcheng in less than five years.
Although it looks a bit biased now, in the future the current city center will become increasingly dilapidated and gradually become an old city.
Therefore, Chen Zui still wanted to take a serious look at the house.
Just when I walked into it, I saw my mother and aunt just shouting: "Mom, aunt."
As soon as the words left her mouth, she saw the person next to them and had to add: "Auntie."
"Uh, there's also Qiu Yi."
【Moldy atmosphere.】
[Is this Luo Qiuyi eating shit? She is so embarrassed that she looks like she is going to a funeral.]
[To be honest, I have never hated anyone in Chen Zui’s world, except Luo Qiuyi.]
Chen Zui is actually the same. He has never had any deep hatred with anyone since he was a child. Just stay away from the people you hate. If you can't see him, you won't be bothered. But if there are people you really hate, they will always be there like flies.
It's wandering before your eyes.
You still can't kill it or get rid of it.
Especially when a fly opens its mouth, the buzzing sound is unbearable.
"Hey, isn't this Boss Chen?"
"You're not here to join in the fun and get the eggs, are you?"
"If I remember correctly, your family is still renting an apartment. You are now the boss. When are you going to change your mother's apartment?"
Luo Qiuyi was so angry at being rebuked by her aunt just now, but when she saw Chen at the end, she found an outlet to vent her anger.
Chen hates her the most. He hates her, but he won't become the same fool as her.
People can't have dogs.
So he didn't feel weird or sarcastic. He smiled and simply replied: "Today, I will buy a set for my mother today."
Of course the aunt didn't take this seriously. She looked at her daughter again and felt that she was really sick today, so she said, "You can't speak, can you?"
Seeing that her mother seemed a little angry, Luo Qiuyi curled her lips and stopped talking. As for what Chen Zui said today, it was a joke. Who would take it seriously?
